The complexity of glycoprotein-derived glycans

A brief review is presented of our studies on the structure of glycoprotein-derived glycans. The emphasis is on the introduction of high-resolution 1H-NMR spectroscopy for the unambiguous determination of primary structures. For this purpose, we developed the structural reporter group concept. Structural reporters are defined as unique markers of structural elements in the NMR spectra. Applicat...

Initial results of a prospective study and identification of new strategies to increase traceability of plasma-derived medicines

Background: Plasma medicine is an innovative and emerging field used in a broad range of medical conditions. Objective: The present study focused on consumption, documentation pattern and traceability of plasma-derived medicines in a teaching and referral hospital. Method: A two-step study was conducted from October to December 2015. During the first phase, the patient records receiving plasm...
